Product details

It's rated for 45 kW at 500 V and 21.1 kW at 690 V, which tells you it handles the heavy lifting on a pump, conveyor, or compressor circuit.

Side-by-side mounting is supported, so you can pack multiple contactors in a row without derating for heat buildup — useful when you're squeezing a motor control center into a tight enclosure. The front carries IP20 protection with the cover or box terminal installed; the terminal body itself is IP00, meaning the wiring compartment needs to live inside a panel or enclosure.

The maximum switching frequency in AC-3 duty (motor starting) is 1,000 operations per hour, so it can cycle a motor start every 3.6 seconds continuously without exceeding the design limits.

Dimensions and wiring

Solid wire capacity goes up to 4 mm² per terminal (two conductors per clamp), and stranded up to 50 mm², which covers the main power feed for a 45 kW motor at 500 V.

Frequently asked questions
